Copy the file stdlayouts.inc to ~/.lyx/layouts/, and add to it (at the end) the following lines: Style ShortCaption CopyStyle Caption LatexName shortcaption LabelString "Short Caption:" LabelType Static Preamble \let\oldcaption=\caption \newcommand{\shortcaption}[1]{% \renewcommand{\caption}[1]{\oldcaption[#1]{##1}}% } EndPreamble End Then, before each caption, insert a shortcaption paragraph that contains only 'Name of the figure'.
